Google announced work on a new protocol for data transmission SPDY (pronounced «SPeeDY»). The project is at an early stage of development and is designed to speed the transfer of information on the Internet. SPDY is, in fact, application-level protocol, designed specifically to reduce delays by using features such as multi-threaded transfer, setting priorities, and HTTP compression headers.
Now is the standard for the Internet Protocol HTTP, which began to apply from 1996. SPeeDY will not replace the protocol, but will complement it. After several months of work to set up an experimental Google builds a browser Chrome and special server software that can communicate with each other and exchange information on the protocol SPeeDY.
There are currently testing a new protocol was carried out only under laboratory conditions. The results are already noteworthy: when working with 25 popular websites speed of loading pages, compared with HTTP was a 55% higher, said ITC.ua.
Despite the fact that to quit SPeeDY outside the laboratory should be a lot more work, the development team believes that they have reached a threshold where the project could be open for examination and cooperation with other programmers. Anyone can become better acquainted with the documentation and source code SPeeDY.
